A gripping thriller. I haven't read the book so I have no idea how faithful it is to its source material (I do want to read it having now watched the film). The acting is solid. I thought that I was going to be able to predict the twists but in most cases I was wrong, which is surprising considering I'm normally spot on with thriller movie twists. I do recommend this film.

I'm a fan of this kind of concept. It's very competently lensed and directed it's mostly the writing that lets it down, despite being solid and not at all bad, it's just a little lacking in pace and structure. Hannah Rose Liu is an absolute chameleon of acting talent. One to watch. The rest of the cast is good also, it's a suitable ensemble and the budget is all on screen. A few twists and turns are exciting and I can't fault it for being exactly what it promises to be.

No Exit is the of the best movies of the year. A storm of tension that does not lose its excitement until the last second. Every moment has full of surprises and twists. The fact that the characters aren't "pro" killers makes the movie much better. A must-watch for this year.

Uma surpresa de 2022, "Sem saída" (na tradução brasileira) é muito subestimado, tem uma boa condução, um bom ritmo, atores que dão conta do recado, algumas surpresas, e um bom uso do espaço cênico para tocar o suspense.
É o time de filme que não inventa a roda, mas pelo fato de manter a apreensão já vale. inclusive o achei melhor do que "noites brutais", pois consegue manter-se claustrofóbico até o final. Seguindo a protagonista Derby (Havana Rose Liu), que acabara de escapar de um centro de reabilitação para ir ver a mãe doente, que fica presa num centro devido à tempestade de neve, ela acaba se envolvendo com outras pessoas e, a partir daí, o roteiro apresenta uma situação de perigo onde todos os demais passam a ser suspeitos.
Bem interessante como há reviravoltas que podem até ser fáceis de serem descobertas, mas não soaram forçadas a ponto de comprometer a verossimilhança, ao contrário, foram plausíveis aqui. e como já falado sobre o espaço cênico, embora sem nenhum toque de ousadia, transpareceu a agonia mesmo em suas limitações.
O mais divertido é ver as saídas encontradas pelos personagens, que parecem estar encurralados mas sempre conseguem enxergar vias de escape. inclusive o filme poderia manter a tensão em certos momentos, mas prefere ser um pouco mais ágil. Outro fator positivo é ver que o filme não poupa ninguém, todos são vulneráveis e acontecem repentinas mortes, mesmo com alguns momentos deus ex-machina.
No geral, o filme agrada. Recorre a certos clichês, mas tem um produto final adequado ao que se propõe.

It is 6.5 movie for me - while I enjoyed most of it, what the movie lacked was showing some more of the backstory for some of the characters and there were some plot holes in it. But I did like the whole concept and it was intriguing to watch.

"No Exit" is beautiful to look at, has some nice shots, and an intriguing story. Perfectly fine limited location thriller. I don't understand the mixed reviews, honestly.

Streamers, we've been telling you there's tons and tons of content out there to watch and the movie I just watched falls in line. No Exit wasn't even on my gps because Hulu is a last resort, desperation streaming app for me. Nevertheless, after watching Fresh, I figured I'd give this movie a shot. No Exit is a streaming flick about a group of individuals finding themselves stuck during a blizzard at a highway rest stop in the mountains. Our main squeeze Darby, played by Havana Rose Liu, finds a kidnapped child hidden in a car belonging to one of the people inside. She has to find out whodunit and how to get out. Of there. Let's see if Hulu came in the clutch. Fresh-face-alert - Havana Liu seems pretty new to the acting world and based on this we'll probably see her in many other things. She is a solid lead to root for throughout the film. Semi-fresh-face-alert goes out to Danny Ramirez. He's been in a bunch of things over the last few years including a small role in Falcon and the Winter Soldier but probably more famously he'll be in Top Gun: Maverick, coming soon. Either way, the cast as a whole even as slight as it is plays their roles really well. Each person has their niche and plays it to the T, even you "What's in your wallet" man. Yes, he's been in tons of things other than those commercials over the decades but y'all know who I'm talking about. Sidenote: Strangely enough this movie was filmed in Auckland, New Zealand but it's supposed to be somewhere between California and Nevada and in the middle of a huge snowstorm. It's one of the most random and confusing facts but then I think that this is definitely just a pandemic movie. You can film it anywhere with your cast of 7 in one single location primarily and it'll be fine. But I digress. The movie has a simple plot as explained above: who kidnapped this kid and how will we get out of this place. Simple enough but the movie has enough twists and turns, drama, and thrills to keep you invested until the end. I don't know if I find this movie particularly groundbreaking or original but it gets the job done. Long story short, No Exit is a solid pandemic/streaming movie. Short on the number of cast members but not light on the output, except for you Dale ****. Suspense, twists, turns, and bloody messes will keep you focused through the movie. Grab a bowl of popcorn and enjoy this thriller in maniller.

The kind of film that No Exit is, is the kind of film that I love to see when it comes to thrillers, because it's of a kind that you hardly see anymore. It's the kind of thriller that would have been a big hit 20 years ago for its atmosphere and suspense. For that I give it credit but I must also mention its weaknesses, as its slow start never seems to get going properly and its mystery fizzles out quicker than I would have liked, but there are enough secrets to keep the tension going as it builds to its chaotic climax. Like many thrillers of this measure, it will work best as long as you don't dig too deeply into its flaws, sometimes it can't be helped, but as far as streaming offerings go it's watchable. Just don't expect anything special.

A subpar film in almost every way. The fact that is a made-for-tv movie can't excuse its cheap look; 'Kimi' and even 'Fresh' — also from Hulu — prove that you can make something interesting with little money and by not trying to be too serious. In this thriller — if you can call it like that because I found no sense of real mystery anywhere — a young woman escapes the rehab center where she's at so she can go and see his mother, who's very ill. Shortly, a blizzard strands her in a rest area, where at least one of the visitors is hiding something. Mediocre acting, forgettable characters, awful dialogue — you know something's off when there's a gunshot and a character says that "there's only one thing in the world that sounds like a gunshot" — and the most generic story makes 'No Exit' a very bland experience. Not even its 90s vibe and the gore — a pool of blood kills someone! — can save it.

There is a scene where someone sniffs cocaine and becomes powered up like Super Mario when he takes a Mushroom. It's a pretty enjoyable suspenseful thriller with dumb writing.

Un thriller psicológico muy bien adaptado, más sin embargo falta tensión y más paranoia entre los protagonistas. Buena película palomera para disfrutar en familia durante un fin de semana.

Entretenida, no es para tanto, pero si tiene muy buenos elementos como el manejo del suspenso, la trama y la banda sonora, aunque en el tramo final la historia decae mucho, no estropea el resultado en general

(This film is not a reference to the existential play by Jean-Paul Satre.) Havana Rose Liu plays a woman on the way to her hospitalized mother, when she gets sidelined by a blizzard. She takes shelter at a park visitor's center, where she discovers a kidnapped a girl in a van. Which of the other people is the villain and how will she save her? While the plot is a bit convoluted, once things take off, director Damien Power creates an intriguing thriller that ends up in a surprisingly intense climax.

A film quite distant from an original or modern idea, a completely flat story until the end, where it starts at its best and rises again. After all, not such a bad movie, if so appreciate the genre. A quiet hour and a half that transmits tension only in the final part, but which ultimately remains a banal idea.
